Bingo Competitions
If you have more than one child, they can compete to see who can get bingo first. The winner can choose where to sit in the car (where safe), what song or station to play on the radio, or where to stop for a snack or meal.
A child can compete against himself by seeing how many squares he can mark off each trip or during each leg of a long trip.
How to Print These Road Trip Bingo Cards
If you want, you can simply print the road trip bingo cards on plain printer paper. The cards are sized for letter-sized paper, with two cards per page.
I like to print mine on cardstock so they are sturdier. Then, I laminate them so we can reuse them.
If you don’t have a laminator, you can use self-adhesive sheets or just slide the pages into page protectors. Then, the kids can use dry erase markers to mark their cards. Wipe off with a napkin and you’ve got a clean board ready for a new game!
Car Bingo Cards
I actually prefer transparency markers since they don’t wipe off on the kids hands when they rest their hands on the bingo cards. You need a wet wipe to clean the cards off though.
You can clip the bingo cards onto these small clipboards and keep the marker in the pen holder to make it travel-ready.
